Description

Review of Roger Crowley's book "Conquerors. How Portugal Forged the First Global Empire". Conquerors is an agile, compelling book that lacks nothing in historical accuracy and methodological rigor. Roger Crowley’s narration takes the reader, both the simple curious and the specialist, through a relatively short historical parable that changed the history of the world forever.
